I'm Dreaming of a Frozen Witch Part 2
Willard Kraft was sitting in his office looking through the school records to find more students that he could give detention to when his phone rang. "Willard Kraft," he said as he picked up the phone.
"Where's my sister?" Hilda demanded as soon as she heard Willard's voice. She had been waiting for Zelda to come home for almost two hours now. All of her egghead friends were there and Hilda was about to die of boredom, not to mention the fact that they had already gone through the snacks that Zelda had prepared for them, forcing Hilda to zap in treats.
"Hilda? Why are you asking me where Zelda is? I haven't seen her in nearly a week. I was meaning to drop by this afternoon but..."
"What? Zelda was going to drop by the school to visit you for some reason that I can't begin to understand. What do you mean you haven't seen her?"
"I haven't seen her. I've been in my office all day and she certainly hasn't been here," Willard said. Just then he remembered Sabrina. Maybe she knew where her aunt was. "I'll see if I can find her though."
"Miss Spellman, please report to my office immediately!" Willard called out over the intercom as soon as he hung up the phone.
"What? What did I do?" Sabrina grumbled as she picked up her books and headed off to the office. It wasn't fair that Mr. Kraft could persecute her for absolutely no reason.
"Miss Spellman, have you seen your Aunt Zelda today?" Willard said as soon as Sabrina came in the door.
"Not since breakfast this morning. Why?" Sabrina asked. She was relieved that she didn't seem to be in trouble after all.
"Your Aunt Hilda just called looking for her. It seems that she was planning to drop by the school today but I haven't seen her. Do you have any idea where she could be?"
Sabrina was about to answer when Valerie came hobbling in. "Mr. Kraft, here's my note for being late today. I had to go to the dentist," she said as she handed him a piece of paper, "Could I call my mother now? I think that I need to go to the emergency room."
"Val, what happened to you?" Sabrina asked.
"I fell on the sidewalk. Janitor Bob didn't salt it so it's covered with ice," Val muttered. "Mr. Kraft, can I call my mother?"
Willard didn't answer. He was wondering if Valerie's statement about the sidewalks might explain what happened to Zelda. He stood up and headed for the door leaving Sabrina and Val wondering what in the world was going on.
